I've got the chance to try out Y500 at pc fair ytd, my first impression, like abit warm at the base.. hmm =\

Yea try out during pcfair also...

Did not impress though. Summore the price is too high want discount also sikit (so rekemen any1 want to buy go look in lyn sales)

End up buying other laptop lol

How much they quoted you?
At the end what laptop you bought?

Best best price also 3759. Ask free other stuff also cant, free extend warranty also cant.

In the end bought msi gx60. A better deal i think and dont need to deal with sli caveat

Aiyo, GX60 is A10 + HD 7970M. Totally different class How much, RM6-7k?

@@ 4.3k only....

For 600 more i get a better gfx(at least single), 8gb ram, 750gb hdd and DVDRW. Get 2yrs msi warranty n free 1yr insurance warranty.

Cpu is bad i agree, but i got no problem treat it as support AMD business so they dun close shop

4.3k is pretty good.. i thought it will cost around 5k here.
you can force the proc to use and stay on turbomode more often.

A 7970M gpu laptop for 4.3k is totally the best bang for bucks.
The 600 extra you had spend definitely worth you every penny compared to lenovo y500 at 3799 if you are into heavy gaming.

Don't worry lah. AMD GPU still very competitive vis-a-vis Nvidia (just wish they could just put more effort into driver support, the price premium that Nvidia charge on the high end is really ridiculous). Only the CPU business totally whacked by Intel.

Good deal. Not all games faced CPU bottleneck. And your GPU blow Y500 away.

Care to share the full spec at this thread so that TJ could update?

Aha! Finally found a person who has a GX60. Can you please make a review on your laptop. I've been eyeing on this beast quite a long time.

I heard the cpu is the bottleneck on the overall performance. Does it really affect gaming/light photoshop work?

Edit: Where did you bought it?
